OK, it's fine to have them separated, but in that case shouldn't the
copyright of the default stanza match what the COPYRIGHT file says, or maybe
just add Sun Microsystems, Inc. to the default stanza?

Yes.

OK.

As you are the author of the man page in question here, do you agree to
license the file man/man1/splat.1 under a DFSG-free license, e.g. GPL-2+?

Yes, of course, according to the mainline project license.

I suspected that, but it's a bit unclear when looking at the man page itself. Therefore I suggest to either add the standard GPL boilerplate to the man page or, if you prefer, just remove the scary "All rights reserved.", so that one doesn't have to wonder if the project license really applies to this file.

I haven't reviewed the debian/copyright of zfs-linux fully yet, but attached
patch fixes some issues I already noticed:

Thanks, syntax changes will happen on your advice.

You're welcome.

Best regards,
Andreas
